莱特币 (LTC) 庆祝自成立以来正常运行时间达到 100% 记录

莱特币 (LTC) 正在庆祝一个历史性的里程碑：自成立以来一直保持 100% 的正常运行时间记录。莱特币基金会官方X账号分享了一张“莱特币正常运行时间追踪器”的截图，表明莱特币网络自2011年10月23日成立以来一直100%正常运行。

Litecoin (LTC) has achieved a remarkable milestone by maintaining 100% uptime since its inception. The official X handle of the Litecoin foundation shared a screenshot of the "Litecoin uptime tracker," indicating that the Litecoin network has been fully functional 100% since its launch on October 23, 2011.

莱特币 (LTC) 自成立以来保持 100% 的正常运行时间，实现了非凡的里程碑。莱特币基金会官方X手柄分享了一张“莱特币正常运行时间追踪器”的截图，表明莱特币网络自2011年10月23日上线以来已经100%功能齐全。

Throughout its existence, Litecoin has encountered technical challenges like any other cryptocurrency. However, these challenges have never resulted in network downtime. Litecoin's continuous operation is attributed to its robust architecture and the dedication of the Litecoin community in ensuring the network's stability.

在其存在过程中，莱特币像任何其他加密货币一样遇到了技术挑战。然而，这些挑战从未导致网络停机。莱特币的持续运行归功于其稳健的架构以及莱特币社区在确保网络稳定性方面的奉献精神。

Litecoin's journey began in 2011 when it was created by Charlie Lee, a former Google employee and MIT alumnus. Litecoin was designed to complement Bitcoin (BTC) by offering faster transaction times and lower fees. It was among the first cryptocurrencies to use the Scrypt algorithm in its proof-of-work (PoW) consensus mechanism.

莱特币的旅程始于 2011 年，当时它是由前谷歌员工、麻省理工学院校友查理·李 (Charlie Lee) 创建的。莱特币旨在通过提供更快的交易时间和更低的费用来补充比特币（BTC）。它是首批在其工作量证明（PoW）共识机制中使用 Scrypt 算法的加密货币之一。

Litecoin's Scrypt algorithm is claimed to be more power-efficient and accessible than the SHA-256 algorithm used by Bitcoin. This setup is beneficial as it gives a lower barrier to entry, allowing more people to engage in cryptocurrency mining.

莱特币的 Scrypt 算法据称比比特币使用的 SHA-256 算法更节能、更易于访问。这种设置是有益的，因为它降低了进入门槛，允许更多的人参与加密货币挖掘。

Moreover, Litecoin's genesis block was mined quickly, taking only 2 minutes and 43 seconds. This rapid genesis block mining time is said to have contributed to Litecoin's early success and popularity among cryptocurrency enthusiasts.

而且，莱特币的创世块被开采得很快，只用了2分43秒。据说，这种快速的创世块挖掘时间促成了莱特币的早期成功和在加密货币爱好者中的流行。
